Don't use Google. We complain about Government snooping, yet accept these vast unaccountable corporations can do what they like with data about us.

...you should see the permissions Google grants itself when pre-loaded with, or installing any Google product onto your cell phone.
Contacts, permission to change any permissions, all calls, txts, emails, location, microphone and even camera are a few off the top of my head.

If you are concerned about government hacking your computer to access the websites you have viewed then its not enough to simply use the clear browsing history in google.
If you sign in to your google account and visit history.google.com... you will find that all your browsing history including YouTube history is still on show.
I have just spent the last half hour removing web history as far back as 2012.
